Federal Judge Diane Gujarati sentenced OneTaste founder Nicole Daedone to nine years in prison for a forced-labour conspiracy, ruling that the organisation's 'orgasmic meditation' model was a cover for the systematic psychological and financial exploitation of its vulnerable practitioners
Nicole Daedone, the founder of the globally recognised sexual-wellness company OneTaste, was sentenced to nine years in federal prison. While the organisation marketed a practice called 'orgasmic meditation' as a path to psychological healing and female empowerment, federal prosecutors successfully argued that it was the facade for a sophisticated forced-labour conspiracy.
Presiding over this landmark case was US District Judge Diane Gujarati, whose refusal to accept the defence's framing of "voluntary spiritual service" transformed her into the ultimate legal nemesis for Daedone. The sentencing marks a definitive end to a saga that moved from Silicon Valley TED Talks to allegations of cult-like sex trafficking and financial ruin.
